Casetext

Casetext pioneered AI-powered legal research with its CARA (Case Analysis Research Assistant) technology and later developed CoCounsel, one of the first GPT-4 powered legal AI assistants. The platform was acquired by Thomson Reuters and its technology now powers the CoCounsel product integrated into Westlaw. As a standalone product, Casetext offers AI-powered legal research with natural language search across a comprehensive case law database. Its AI understands legal concepts and can find relevant cases based on the facts and issues of your matter, not just keyword matching. The platform was particularly popular with solo and small firm practitioners for its accessible pricing. Priced from approximately $180 per month, Casetext remains available as a standalone product while its technology is being integrated into the broader Thomson Reuters ecosystem. It's a strong choice for smaller firms that want AI-powered research without a full Westlaw subscription.
